Abstract
Various steerable tips may be used with flexible rods to move the tips through a wide assortment of cavities. In one embodiment, a steerable tip is constructed of a rigid tip body having a proximal end, a distal end and a plurality of radially extending fins. Also, at least one of the fins defines a surface through which extends at least one through hole. Also, a proximal connector is operably coupled to the proximal end of the tip body, and the proximal connector is adapted to couple the tip body to a rod. A distal connector is operably coupled to the distal end of the tip body. This permits other accessories to be coupled to the tip.
